X-Men: Days of Future Past is still making bank in the theaters, but we're skipping ahead to the franchise's next films!!

Can you really blame us, tho??? The next one is chock full of Channing Tatum!!!!

In a recent interview for 22 Jump Street, the super-talented super-stud confirmed he wll indeed be playing Gambit — a bayou badboy with a mutant gene that allows him to supercharge small items with EXPLOSIVE kinetic energy (like our peen, no doubt.)

In addition, Channing says his spin-off should also come out BEFORE X-men: DoFP's sequel, X-Men: Apocalypse, hits theaters in 2016.

Woot, woot! The sooner the better!!!

Ch-ch-check out the Magic Mike star's UNCANNY interview for yourself…AFTER THE JUMP!!!
